Watch PokerRoad Radio’s Joe Stapleton’s Golden Brown Prop Bet on RawVegas.tv
One time, these three really hot girls approached the
Entities at this
Victoria’s Secret lingerie show we were at and said, “You guys are really hot. Can we pay you $10,000 a piece to have sex with us?” After some hemming and hawing, we said, “Make it $15,000.” They said, “How about $20,000?” And we said, “Deal.”
The point of this story is some people will do anything for money.
Take Poker Road Radio host Joe Stapleton.
Gavin Smith and Joe Sebok bet Stapes that he wouldn’t take 14 total spray tan #3′s (that’s like turning your amp all the way to 11…i.e. it’s as high as you can go) over the course of a week. He thought he could do it, so he took the bet. The above video is what he looks like after JUST THREE SPRAYS.
We’ll do a follow-up vid on Monday to see how he looks again…

Phil Ivey has more on the line than his £2,500 entry fee in WSOPE Event #2.
Phil Ivey, who likes to gamble, made some big prop bets this year with a number of players (Daniel Negreanu for around $200k, Eli Elezra for around $500k) this year. He came up short at the 2008 World Series of Poker. After the WSOP wrapped, he allegedly told everyone that WSOPE bracelets were part of the bet. Fair enough.
Things are still looking good for Ivey in Event #2 (£2,500 H.O.R.S.E.) of the WSOPE. Yesterday he was chip leader for a good part of the day. Play stopped with 11 remaining, and Ivey was mid-stacked. Only 10 remaining now, and he’s fourth overall with around 114,000.
The current top three big stacks are Howard Lederer (208,500), Yuval Bronshtein (133,500), and Jeffrey Lisandro (125,000).
In related news, Phil Hellmuth busted in 12th.

If you’re like us and not too much into reading anything that doesn’t have a NSFW picture of some hot chick next to it, then you’ve probably forgotten to renew your New York Times subscription.
Fortunately, people like Kid Dynamite still reads stuff with more text than "Measurements" and "Favorite Hobby." He sent along this article on prop betting, featuring many of the wagers that are much talked about around the Rio in Las Vegas this year.
Read the full article here. Watch Gavin Smith and Joe Sebok‘s show on prop betting, appropriately titled Prop Bets, here. Rewatch the Cap Gun Russian Roulette prop bet from the 2008 WSOP below.

Poker pros Gavin Smith and Joe Sebok return today with what could be their worst webisode of Prop Bets ever.
Currently running on Poker Road Radio (Mon – Fri, 11am-12pm), Gavin and Joe pick two horses for a Cap Gun Russian Roullete contest. One of the dudes is a spot-on twin of Jerry Yang.
Gavin, who hasn’t gone to bed from the previous evening and still might be a little bit drunk, is top of form. Footage should be up on RawVegas.tv in a couple hours.
Until then, watch the Gavin Gone Wild edition of Prop Bets from last year.
